Week of January 28

The classroom Spelling Bees certainly brought some fun to our classes this past week! Congratulations to the following winners: Ammar Kalimullah, John Irish, Kevin Raher, Kelly Stapleton, Tosha Kadakia, and Steven Kryk. The grade level Bees will be held soon, so keep studying!

Here is a list of words commonly misspelled: February, recommend, schedule, commitment, vacuum, herbivore, mediocre, necessary, gorgeous, fatigue, diorama, taupe, mayonnaise. Do you often misspell any of these words? Keeping a list of words you often misspell and referring to it can help you conquer this troublesome task.

On Tuesday, you will select new novels to read for the next book report. Period 3 will select Historical fiction books. Periods 5 & 7 will select Adventure books.
